[QUOTE="HeffersonDavidos, post: 74315522, member: 422592"] I don't agree with the last part of your phrasing that "ethnic-minority colleagues have a day once in a while where they get to be in charge." Sounds a bit patronizing. They don't need a day to be in charge per se - they need good information, and some recognition in the field. These types of forums are run for females all the time. However I agree with you and others that there is a legit place for information and encouragement of legit interest groups locked out of many fields historically. Just having a forum for example where you can find out about job openings or scholarships can be valuable, for many of these things are not advertised at all but are "word of mouth." If you are not in certain favored networks, you never get the word. [/QUOTE]
